They've even got a name for it, ANAREXIA.

And that ain't from being poor, just too nerotic to eat.

How is this possible when we have an "obesity" "epidemic" at the same time? I have yet to hear anyone answer that question. This is why I really want John Edwards' campaign to go nowhere. He keeps saying the lie about 35 million kids starving in poverty. It just doesn't jive with other data. Also, I have further comments on the problem with white liberals like him, but I'll save those for later.

It's horrible, I can't get the images out of my mind...children with extended bellies and withered limbs lying half dead in the arms of their skeletal mothers, endless lines of people waiting in the scorching heat for a scoop of dried grain and a pail of water....oh, wait, U.S. starvation...I thought you were talking about, oh never mind.

I, too, would like to see some figures on that...

I highly doubt that statement, as knowing the mainstream media's penchant for shoving pain and suffering - not to mention anything negative they could conjure up against Bush - I see that statement as liberal upchuck

The liberal media would be ablaze with a "starvation" story...there would be endless interviews and camera in-yo'-face episodes about this.

The press would gnash and wail about the people who are without food, probably "due to the mean-spirited Republicans", etc.

There would government investigations and every handout organization in the United States would be buying a plane ticket to fly to where ever this "starvation" incident happened...they would form a line across America to be the first ones to donate food, clothing...etc...especially if there were "cameras" present....(ahem).

Take this claim and file it under "reparation"...
